How it's used
Used almost exclusively in the context of electronic display technology rather than the scientific study of matter. While the term is technically a noun, it functions as an attributive modifier in daily speech, appearing most frequently before words like 電視 or 屏幕. It is rarely used in isolation outside of technical or retail settings.
